Static x86_64 builds about packages HOT 2 OPEN

This is very nice! I used it and it is awesome!
Very nice work!

In order for a static netdata to be installed, I guess the following have to be made:

1. Add user netdata to the system
2. Add group netdata to the system
3. Add user netdata to various groups that might already exist to the system (docker, varnish, nginx, haproxy, adm)
4. Install logrotate file
5. Install systemd service or init file
6. Chown/chmod netdata files
7. setcap or setuid to root apps.plugin
8. If the installation path already has a netdata installation, check all the config files and keep the ones that have been edited.
9. generate the netdata-uninstaller.sh script
10. generate the netdata-updater.sh script

All the above, in addition to compiling netdata are handled by netdata-installer.sh, so I'll split it in 2 parts to avoid having to maintainer 2 installers.

Questions:

1. netdata requires fping 3.15+ to run (the nice folks at fping accepted my PR, so fping can become a netdata plugin!). I guess we can compile fping the same way and install it in /opt/netdata.

2. Shall we link netdata to /usr/sbin/netdata, /etc/netdata to /opt/netdata/etc/netdata ? This will allow people to use the same instructions found everywhere...

3. I would love to ship firehol, fireqos, iprange and the rest of our tools with this binary release.

4. I would love people to install netdata with just a curl command. So, the flow could be something like this:

   1. curl installer.sh >/tmp/netdata.sh && sh /tmp/netdata.sh - this script will just run uname -m to get the machine architecture and uname -s to find the kernel type (linux, freebsd, etc) and will execute:
   2. curl installer-${ARCH}-${KERNEL}.sh >/tmp/netdata-${ARCH}-${KERNEL}.sh && sh /tmp/netdata-${ARCH}-${KERNEL}.sh. This one will be the binary release, built with makeself.
   3. makeself should be instructed to unzip the file in /opt/netdata and call /opt/netdata/installer/makeself-installer.sh which will execute the 10 steps I described at the beginning.
   4. special care has to be given to etc/ directory. I think we should ship it as etc.new/ and the installer will copy the files while keeping the ones that have been edited by the user.

@philwhineray @simonnagl what do you think?

from packages.

Sounds reasonable to me. Let's mention that I have no experience with makeself.
